Modelling assumptions can simplify a problem and allow you to analyse a real-life situation using known mathematical techniques. You need to understand the significance of different modelling assumptions and how they affect the calculations in a particular problem. In this lesson you learn about Modelling in Mechanics Modelling Assumptions , modelling assumptions, pulley assumption, smooth and rough surfaces, assumptions for a lamina.
